Show Jeo Sparkle With the Frost i v - . 1 1 LTHOUGH the small hat has trl-f trl-f umphed for four Beaaons it shows not the slightest sign of losing ground. And for midwinter, with fur a furore und many brilliant trimming novelties at the milliner's hand, the small hat cannot be outrivaled for beauty. Velvet Vel-vet and furs look unusually well with the many metallic trimmings which will sparkle along with the frost as long as winter lasts. Besides the endless number of turban tur-ban shapes there are small hats with itraight brims, made of metallic nets Dr laces, and velvet crowns for those R'ho prefer brimmed shapes to the turban. Among the most elegant of moaeis are tnose navlng naif the brim 9f velvet, bordered with a wide flange of silver or gold lace or net, and the crown of velvet. For a hat of this Icind the trimming is often a collar of mink or ermine or fitch. Sometimes i big flower of metallic net, having Bach petal bound with fur, is used for garniture, and sometimes brilliant silk ind velvet roses are used. Hats of this kind are rather diflicult to make ind require perfect, workmanship and the best material. Occasionally a moderately wide-brimmed wide-brimmed hat emphasizes just how be coming the brimmed hat can be. UsU' ally it is trimmed with a broad band of ostrich. An example of this style is shown in the picture, and for shape and manner of trimming it cannot be improved upon. In the pretty velvet turban at the right a narrow fringe of curled ostrich extends about the top of the coronet and the edge of the crown. An applique ap-plique of fancy braid gives a touch of color at the side. Metallic ribbons are used in bows to finish turbans of this kind. This is an excellent model for women of middle age. More distinctly suited to the ma- . i. tn tHQ tnrhmi With & tronly wearer is the turban witn a wide fur band about the coronet headed with a band of steel beads. The crown is extended to simulate a loop of velvet at the center and overhangs over-hangs the coronet at the back like a tam. This method of draping the crown gives the turban the necessary height. A collar of white fox fur is effectively effective-ly worn with this smartly designed hat. . Collars and boas of ostrich serve the purpose of fur. They are made in many colors and combinations of colors and are very popular. |
